did you let it dry? and least it's not sugar pop, that would probably be worse.

haha. I'm seeing if it works when I dry it a bit more. I put a fan up against it.

don't quote me on this but i've heard that rinsing it out with rubbing alcohol will do it.
at the very least, turn it upside-down and let it dry out on some paper towels or something. it'll slowly recover some, but not necessarily all of its function. |

You could always pop off all the keys and blot it with some papertowel, though I suppose it's a bit late for that.
I'm super paranoid about spilling liquid on my laptop. Luckily today my dad came over and gave me a surprise present: a tv tray!!! So now it sits next to my desk for when I'm eating / snacking. |
